Latest 10 6 8 Snow Leopard Build Enhances Mac App Store To Get Ready For Lion

One small noteworthy bit from the latest 10.6.8 build.  It appears Apple is readying the Mac App Store for doing wholesale updates to Lion.  In the release notes, you get the following:

We’re pretty sure Apple will also sell packaged Lion upgrades but that remains to be seen.  Also 10.6.8 Identifies and removes the MacDefender Malware.

Thanks Schimanke!
